Girl, 15, will undergo psychiatric assessment in senior's murder case

Article here. Excerpt:

'The 15-year-old girl charged with first-degree murder in the killing of 78-year-old Frank Tonge has been remanded for a psychiatric assessment.

The young girl, who cannot be identified because of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, made her first court appearance in Hampton on Thursday.

She fought back tears as the charge was read, her mother and sister looking on.

Tonge was found on June 5 laying in a pool of blood in his home in Damascus, near Hampton, by a friend.

The girl did not enter a plea and David Lutz, the defence lawyer, requested a 30-day psychiatric, psychological and medical assessment.

Meanwhile, the RCMP continues to investigate but the police seem to be backing away from earlier suggestions that other suspects could be charged.'
